The actress who played late-night horror hostess Elvira has claimed she was sexually assaulted by late NBA player Wilt Chamberlain.
Cassandra Peterson, 70, who began portraying the famous horror figure in the 1980s, made the allegations in her tell-all memoir Yours Cruelly, Elvira: Memoirs of the Mistress of the Dark, released on Tuesday.
She claims the former Harlem Globetrotter had forced her to perform oral sex on him.
'When a 7-foot-1, 300-pound man has his hand wrapped around your neck, there’s really not a lot you can do,' Peterson wrote.
She also references Chamberlain's memoir where he detailed his history of romantic relationships with women - which he claimed to be 20,000.
'I had to wonder how many of those women actually consented to having sex with him,' Peterson added.
Peterson also wrote about her experiences with other male celebrities when she was a Vegas showgirl such as biting the lip of Andy Williams who allegedly tried to forcibly kiss her, and claims Tom Jones accidentally sent her to the emergency room following an internal injury sustained while they had sex.
The former mistress of the dark also revealed that she is now dating a woman.
The cult horror star had kept her 19-year-relationship with female trainer Teresa 'T' Wierson secret until now because she said she feared alienating fans. But when writing her memoir, she decided she wanted to be fully open.
'I’m glad to have it out there,' she wrote. 'I mean, it does worry me. I have moments where I go, ‘Maybe people won’t like me anymore’ and ‘Maybe I won’t get work anymore.’

“which he claimed to be 20,000”
I bet 99.98% were whites.
How many stds did this guy have?
Well it is show business and sports figures, kinda expect weird crap.
“she said she feared alienating fans”
Fans?
This is certainly a good thread for us to interact and find better ways to restore our FreeRepublic.
She’s speaking about all this only now; decades later.
Elvira really knows how to keep her mouth closed!
Can I ask a stupid question? How could she fear alienating fans? We live in an era where it is now cool to be gay. It’s celebrated if you are in an alternative lifestyle. So why would she fear alienation? Is she saying her fans are homophobic?
Meme rich subjects.
Will check back later
Training females is quite a job nowadays ...
Peterson is now in a 19-year relationship with female trainer Teresa Wierson
I wasn’t expecting that.
seems she got herself into it. chose to play the part and with it comes unwanted happenings leading to more twisted choices and situations.
I thought that Chamberlain played for the Lakers, not the Harlem Globetrotters?
Didn’t Elvira date Presley in her younger days?
That being said, she was always a hoot and I'm glad she's still around and happy in her elder years.......
Is that you Wilt??
What she said is true.
But when his hand comes off your neck, you can call the police.
Just seemed weird (to say the least) to be that interested in the racial make-up of all the women some other guy has ever slept with.
Her show was pretty bad. The “jokes” and “quips” were seldom amusing. The only attraction, well I mean attractions, were her gazongas. Her audience was largely young men. So yes, she would have alienated them. Wokeness didn’t exist when she was on the air.
